I'm on my fourth pregnancy @ 20 weeks and I swear from the moment the plus sign appeared I have been growing. I look as pregnant as my friend who is 7 months! But like most of you the doctor says it' sbecause it's my fourth and my body is already "trained" to grow in preperation...

I'm 20 weeks now, baby kickin up a storm! This is my third pregnancy and third child and I was big with all of them! My son now 15yrs and 6'3" was 8lbs 4oz and my daughter 19 months was 8lbs 5oz. I am sure this baby will be at least 8 lbs, but no matter how much the baby weighs, I think it's just how you carry. I'm half Italian, so you know what that means! Big boobs, butt and belly!

I'm at 20 weeks with my first. Up until about week 17 I was losing weight, then all of a sudden my belly started to look like a beach ball. Everyone is right about each pregnancy being different. It could also have to do with your diet this time around. I really think that I started to show so quickly because I finally got my appetite back after 3 months of morning sickness.

See that what understand is that i thought you were supposed to grow as the weeks went. Like if your 19 weeks your uterus will measure 19cm. But i had a doctors app yesterday and measured 22cm. Does that mean that maybe the dates are wrong or that the baby might be huge??

This is my second pregnancy and I am larger than I had expected. However,I have gained about 5 lbs so far and I am 20 weeks along. They say to expect it during second pregnancies because the uterus doesn't need as much to expand. I feel more pregnant that I am, if that makes any sense. I am excited though. I wear srubs at work, so the need for maternity clothes has not been my number one priority, but I now have realized that it is time to buy some.

Im 19 weeks today and I feel like im more like 30 weeks. I sit all day at work and sometimes when I get up I feel like I walk like a duck. This is my fourth baby and my other pregnancies I always carried low, I just hope I don't suffer with hip pain again like my last two preganancies. Does anyone else feel this way?

I AM 19 WEEKS AND ILL BE 20 WEEKS IN 4 DAYS FROM NOW... MY BABY MOVES AND KICKS ME ALL THE TIME I AM SO JOY FUL AND HAPPY WITH THIS 3RD TIME OF ME BEING PREGNANT BCAUSE MY FIRST TWO BABYS WERE STILLBORN AND THEY NEVER MOVED AS MUCH AS THIS ONE DOSE... IM HOPING THIS IS A GOOD SIGN... I AM A HIGH RISK SO I GO TO ALOT OF DIFFRENT DOCTOR APPOINTMENTS... EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE SO FAR IM JUST PRAYING AND HOPEING IT IS... I GET SO EXCITED TO FEEL HOW ACTIVE THIS BABY IS AND I REALLY CANT WAIT UNTIL THIS FRIDAY TO FIND OUT WHAT IT IS YAAY...
